Armour on Hill.

It is the good fortune of James j. Hill
to be a large capitalist himself and to be
able to raise all the money he may need
for new enterprises by the confidence
which his successful career inspires in
others. On this subject the sWhisperer"
in the Saint Paul Globe observes:
A man who has strong enemies by the
law of compensation also always has some
pretty vigorous friends, and among his
friends president j. j. Hill of the Manito-
ba has none mor stauneh and warm
hearted thar P. d. Armour, whose fame
is, of course, as wide as the west. Talking
with Mr.. Armour the other day, he could
not say too much in praise of Mr.. Hill.
1--WE known Jim Hill for many years.
said Mr.. Armour, land | regard him as
on of the best men the northwest posses
ses. He has been criticised a great deal,
I know, but l don't believe he has been
properly appreciated. He is d man that
looks out for No. 1, of course. all success
full men do that, but he is not a man who
would rob his friends, or any n else for
that matter, to aid himself. | think him
sincere in everything he does. He has
never deceived me in the slightest and |
would believe anything he might choose
to tell me, simply because | have found
him by experience to be true. He is a
brainy man-au<Nssoroughly deserves the
good fortune he has had. Idon't believe
that any one ever cam to misfortune
through association with him, and GER
tainly I never heard of n doing so. |
regard him as one of my warmest friends,
and In all my acquaintance with him have
never had occasion to lessen my confidence
In him or think less of him. Naturally he
is thoroughly wrapped up in the Manito-
ba road, which he has done much to de-
velop. / think the road has a good deal
of merit in it both now, and in the future
a great deal of merit, and / look to see
Jim achieve far greater results. His road
ought to compete pretty we'll with the
Northern Pacific for western business and
on account of its easier grades. / can
readily understand his claim that the
Northern Pacific can only do the business
the Manitoba allows it to do. | think,
however. he is injudicious. in pushing on
to the coast, il heareally intends that. The
whole Paci6c coast hasn't any more peo-
pie than Cook county, and there isn't
enough business for the iranscontinental
roads now in operation. But generally
speaking I have great dealo of confidence
in anything Jim Hill undertakes A
pretty good send off from Il pretty brainy
man, don't you think!
